So-called free-marketers are constantly complaining about regulations. Donald Trump claimed he would get rid of two regulations for every new regulation,. Gosh, do you think he would drop the regulation of concealed-carry in the White House? But that is a whole ‘nother subject.
What triggered this little outburst of mine was an article in the Reader Weekly from Wisconsin Public Radio ("Trade Dispute May Have Mixed Results for Wisconsin”). It contained a story “Wisconsin Lawmakers Consider Sales of Home-Baked Goods Once Again”. You can find the original story at https://www.wpr.org/wisconsin-lawmakers-consider-sales-home-baked-goods-once-again.
“In previous sessions, food industry advocates have brought up concerns about food safety…”
It would be interesting to know who these “food industry advocates” are and if they have ever complained about government regulations for the safety of their own products.
To be fair, many recall articles do state how a company is working with the government to improve. After all, good companies are always concerned about their reputation for quality.
